Eating natural in West Michigan

Practicing good stewardship in the food we eat… August 29, 2010

We’ve taken a journey in the past few years that has given us a wake-up call to question our food source and what the broader implications are. Shifting paradigms is not an overnight transformation but a process that is best taken in smaller steps. It seems like we have come a long way and have had blinders lifted but we still have a long way to go. Our goal with this blog is to help those who come along behind us. To help in identifying sources to feed your family. To help with tips, recipes, and sharing frustrations. To help in opening your eyes to view the world of food in the same light as we now do.

You’ve probably found or will find that in theory it is easy to be against the use of over processed food and chemically enhanced flavors but avoiding it in practice is a whole new battle. Most of us have grown up with terrible food habits and we aren’t even aware of it. So we are going to start with some practical ideas. Some locations and local West Michigan farms to pick up food that has been produced naturally, the way it was originally intended. We hope you find this both helpful and insightful.
